Apparently it was pretty popular despite being in Black & White when most American tvs were in color! But I think even Astro experienced a bit of re-arranging: THe 2nd cleopatra episode feels like it was suppose to air later instead of immediately after the 1st, and I notice a lot of reoccurring villains just getting renamed the next time they show up (and I don't think it's just the Tezuka Star system at play here).
I assume this is to keep the show as episodic as they can? shrugs.
It's really delightful in a sort of old Hanna-Barbara/Looney Tunes way! Definitely a more 2nd monitor type show due to it's age + later adaptions (likely) doing what it does better (haven't checked out the 80's or 00's series to properly compare yet), But it's charming in it's own right. The eps breezed by pretty quick.
It's not a horrible show or anything, I just don't think it's for me
I can't speak on if this is in line with the actual Kamen Rider franchise since I've never seen that but if the fanservice was meant to be part of the comedy or tone, it didn't land for me
I rated all of them around the same margin, but yes~ Natural is my favorite season of the Aria series. I think Natural served as the foundation that made the finale (Origination) hit even harder. It also has so many amazing episodes, like the one where Akari gets lost in the summer heat and finds a restaurant, and Aika’s development in episode 18, where she focuses on creating her own individuality instead of just following Akira. There are more great moments too, and even though I watched it quite a while ago, I’m surprised I still remember so many of them, haha. Overall, that’s why I rank Natural just a little higher than the others.
Hey dude!! Thanks for the friend request and for liking my site. I tend to get surprised when people actually friend me on socials due to it. What do you think of You and Idol Precure? I've been liking it as a dumb show but haven't really got TOO into it honestly.
I’m actually quite liking it so far! It’s VERY dramatic and some characters really get on my nerves, but the style of the show is really good, and the story is actually pretty good! Plus, the music is genuinely amazing, probably one of my favorite anime soundtracks atm

I guess they've gotta get their money's worth out of TeddyLoid somehow
I can see that
